So make the internet into a state service for ISPs? It might not be worse but it could be much better.

Imagine if they did this for water pipes.

Maybe I didn't explain it the best way. By public I didn't mean governmentally run, I just meant that anybody can use the infrastructure. It just forces a separation between the company doing the infrastructure and the ISPs, to prevent monopolies.
